Christchurch goes post-punk: Jonathan Ogilvie's Head South

It’s 1979 in Ōtautahi Christchurch and an energetic underground punk scene is spewing up. It’s decades before the internet, with the very latest overseas sounds dribbling in slowly by import. Records shipped all the way from the UK.       This is the fertile and nostalgic setting for Sydney-based director, Jonathan Ogilvie's excellent fourth feature film, Head South. It’s premiering in Aotearoa New Zealand at this year's Whānau Mārama New Zealand International Film Festival.  He spoke to RNZ’s Culture 101.
